Summary - 49 LAWRIE PARK AVENUE LONDON SE26 6HA
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Large family home on Lawrie Park Triangle with garden and off‑street parking.
Five bedrooms plus study across three floors
Set on a wide, tree‑lined avenue in the Lawrie Park Triangle, this substantial double‑fronted 1930s detached house offers generous family accommodation across three floors. The layout includes two reception rooms, a large kitchen with adjoining utility, a conservatory with underfloor heating, five bedrooms plus a study and three bathrooms — plus a converted garage gym. Mature, enclosed gardens and a gated gravel driveway provide privacy and useful outdoor space for children and pets.
The house retains period character and has been lived in and cared for by the same owners for many years. Key living rooms are bright and well proportioned; the loft bedroom features vaulted ceilings and exposed beams that create a dramatic principal suite. Practical features include off‑street parking, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, fast broadband and very good mobile signal — helpful for home working and family life.
Buyers should note a few material points: the EPC rating is E and the property has older double glazing (installed before 2002). The solid brick walls were built without modern external insulation (as originally constructed), which may mean higher heating costs and potential scope for energy‑efficiency improvements. Council tax is in the higher band and the local area is classified as deprived in parts, although schools nearby are generally rated Good or Independent.
This home suits a growing family seeking space and period charm with clear potential to improve energy performance and modernise some fittings. With its large plot, strong curb appeal and convenient transport links, it also appeals to buyers who value a substantial garden and flexible internal space for home offices, hobbies or a gym.
